The RiverCenter Reviews

The River Center was wonderful to work with. Jennifer McKee responded to every question quickly through e-mail and was always willing to meet if needed. The River Center was beautifully decorated for our reception with the canopy lights. The food was very good.

The RiverCenter was a wonderful venue for our wedding reception! Jennifer is extremely easy to work with and very helpful. The day went completely flawless. Everything was as promised and could not imagine a more beautiful setting to celebrate our night!

I am the Mother of the Bride and worked with Jennifer McKee at the River Center. We were so very happy about our daughter and son-in-law's wedding ceremony and reception! Jennifer is the Event Coordinator and was great! She responded to all questions and concerns immediately. She worked her schedule around us. For example, we hoped to do the menu tasting when the maid of honor was in town, Jennifer scheduled the chef and staff for us. It was so nice of all of them to accomodate us.
We also had to move the room for the ceremony due to another event scheduled in the original space (we knew this was a possibility when we booked the space). Jennifer met us to view the other room and helped us envision the possibilities.
The rooms for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception were fantastic!! The River Center has special lighting ropes for the ceiling that make the space gorgeous! The space for the ceremony was so intimate and lovely. We had so many compliments about the overall appearance of the event.
The food for the cocktail hour and reception was so good! The presentation and the quality was superb. The wait staff was super attentive to all the guests. And, so helpful to me, too!
I could go on and on about how fantastic Jennifer, staff and the River Center was for this special day but I'll stop for now. I would give them a 10...but 5 is the highest rating available

Although I was initially disappointed I didn't get the ceremony space I had hoped for, the space was transformed beyond what I could imagine. The reception space with the lighted canopy is so beautiful and is what initially drew me to want the RiverCenter as my venue.
